Cool JS Effect

go here http://www.avidgamers.com/BLR/ and click on the don't click me button, I think that is the coolest thing I have seen done with javascript

Gimmick.

Ya, that's been on Dynamic Drive for what looks to be close to 3 years now (10/02/00)

And the method it uses (window.moveBy()) has existed since IE4. Kinda neat, but certainly not the coolest thing I've seen w/javascript.

What is the neatest thing you've seen with JavaScript, Beetle?

Hmm. Wow. A hard question - as I've seen lots of great stuff. I'll give you a short list, because just like favorite movies or cars, I can't pick just one

13th Parallel - their column-making script is awesome, just visit an article to see what I mean -- and then view it w/JS turned off.
youngpup - His _ui_webapp interface is extremely original and invigorating. Not to mention that many other scripts he writes are fantastic.
Brothercake's games - Frogger is great!
Triglav - A javascript API driven RPG. Amazing!
WebFX WEbboard - Although the WebFX guys make some crazy stuff, their webboard is truly, very cool.

I know I'm leaving out some good ones, but these are what I was able to think of at the moment. Certainly much cooler (again, IMO) than an earthquake sciprt that is at most, 10 lines of code.

Neat sites beetle, especially Triglav. I think one day all games will be offered the same way, especially with broadband becoming so popular.

compuwhiz7 try my drum site if you have IE; www.unitingrhythms.co.uk/drums/rhythms.html; will play up to four drummers set to different rhythms (still in creation)

and the script for shaking window
<script>
x=10
function shakeit() { if(x>0) { window.moveTo(Math.random()*x,Math.random()*(x));x=x-0.1; setTimeout("shakeit()",x) }}
</script>
<body onload="shakeit()">
